Greenspan and the credit crunch

Two of the keynotes at this year’s BAI Retail Delivery Show are Bob Geldof and Alan Greenspan.  Bob Geldof, the liberating freedom fighter for justice for Africa, wiping out third world poverty and forcing politicians and bankers to give him their f***ing money, whose six-figure pay cheque for his speech is obviously going to Africa…
